Trump Lawfare

Thanks in part to holdups on Trump U.S. attorney confirmations by Senator Chuck Grassley (R-IA), charges filed by Trump appointed U.S. attorney Linda Halligan against DNC operatives have been dismissed. U.S. District Judge Cameron McGowan Currie dismissed the charges against former FBI Director James Comey and current Fulton County Attorney General Leticia James.

The Judge ruled the Halligan was inappropriately appointed and thus has no authority to file charges before a U.S. court. Since the judge dismissed the charges, they can be brought again. Grassley held up the confirmation of Lindsey Halligan using a Senate traditional rule called the “blue slip,” which allows a home-state Senator to hold up any confirmations of their constituents for any reason.

Legal Expert Jonathan Turley Explains Why Comey and James Are Not Out of the Woods Yet, Despite Cases Being Dismissed – Western Journal

George Washington University Law School professor Jonathan Turley made clear on Monday why former FBI Director James Comey and New York Attorney General Letitia James are not out of legal jeopardy yet.

Earlier in the day, U.S. District Judge Cameron McGowan Currie, a Bill Clinton appointee, ruled that Interim U.S. Attorney Lindsey Halligan was incorrectly appointed, and therefore, the indictments brought by her office against Comey and James were “defective.”

“All actions flowing from Ms. Halligan’s defective appointment … constitute unlawful exercises of executive power and must be set aside,” the judge wrote.

US Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel have provided Congress with new evidence detailing Clinton Foundation corruption.

The IRS began investigating the Clinton Foundation in 2019 but abruptly stopped and cut off whistleblowers, according to memos obtained by Just The News over the summer.

“Can’t talk about the CF [Clinton Foundation],” one of the memos stated as it cut off the two Clinton Foundation whistleblowers. On Tuesday, Just The News reported that Patel and Bondi have given Congress a new tranche of documents showing the Clinton Foundation took donor money from foreigners seeking influence.

A federal judge gave New York Attorney General Letitia James and former FBI Director James Comey a bit of a reprieve when he threw out the Justice Department’s indictments against them.

But this does not mean they will get off scot-free.

U.S. District Judge Cameron McGowan Currie on Monday dismissed the indictments against the two individuals after determining that the appointment of Interim U.S. Attorney Lindsey Halligan was not valid. He argued that after an interim U.S. attorney’s term expires, it is up to the district court to appoint a replacement. In Halligan’s case, Attorney General Pam Bondi appointed  her instead of the court.

Disgraced former FBI Director James Comey praised the Democrat-aligned federal judge who dismissed the criminal case against him this week.

Comey is arguing that the indictment was driven by political animus and mishandled by prosecutors.

The ruling, however, is already being challenged by President Donald Trump’s administration.

The Trump admin maintains that the case was properly brought and plans to continue pursuing legal action.

Activist Judge Cameron Currie, a Bill Clinton appointee, threw out the false-statements charges on Monday.

A federal judge’s decision to toss the indictments against former FBI boss James Comey and New York Attorney General Letitia James has exposed an embarrassing failure on Capitol Hill, where Senate Republicans clung to a dusty procedural tradition that wound up blowing up two high-profile cases.

The ruling rested on the Senate’s use of the “blue slip” custom, a nearly century-old courtesy that lets home-state senators block federal nominees. Instead of scrapping what critics say has become a partisan choke point, Republicans — led by Sen. Chuck Grassley — stuck to the practice and watched it boomerang.

Grassley’s refusal to move past the blue slip stalled the confirmation of Lindsey Halligan, the Trump-picked prosecutor who led both cases. Because Halligan was never confirmed, the judge ruled she couldn’t legally handle the prosecutions, leaving the Justice Department sidelined by Senate inertia rather than the strength of the evidence.

U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi said Monday that the Department of Justice (DOJ) will pursue “all available legal action” after a federal judge dismissed high-profile criminal cases against former FBI Director James Comey and New York Attorney General Letitia James.

Bondi spoke in Memphis while highlighting the city’s “Safe Task Force.”

She addressed the decision by U.S. District Judge Cameron Currie, who ruled that the prosecutor handling the indictments, Lindsey Halligan, had not been lawfully appointed as interim U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia.

The ruling accepted the argument from Comey’s legal team that Halligan’s appointment was invalid, rendering both indictments defective.

An unelected, inferior-court activist judge tossed the grand jury indictment against disgraced former FBI Director James Comey and New York Attorney General Letitia James on Monday, arguing that federal prosecutor Lindsay Halligan was unlawfully appointed.

Judge Cameron Currie, a Clinton appointee, ruled Monday that Halligan was unlawfully appointed and that the indictments against both Comey and James are invalid.

“On September 25, 2025, Lindsey Halligan, a former White House aide with no prior prosecutorial experience, appeared before a federal grand jury in the Eastern District of Virginia. Having been appointed Interim U.S. Attorney by the Attorney General just days before, Ms. Halligan secured a two-count indictment charging former FBI Director James B. Comey, Jr. with
making false statements to Congress and obstructing a congressional proceeding,” Currie wrote.

A federal judge on Friday blocked the IRS from sharing details of suspected illegal immigrants with Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

The 94-page ruling said that the plaintiffs – two labor unions and a nonprofit that provides tax advice – and the people whom they represent face “an imminent risk” that their confidential address information will be used by ICE for civil immigration enforcement.

“Accordingly, upon consideration of the parties’ submissions, the relevant legal authority, and the entire record, the Court concludes that Plaintiffs are entitled to a stay of the Address-Sharing Policy and other appropriate injunctive relief, and that Plaintiffs’ APA claim regarding the broader Data Sharing policy should not be dismissed,” the ruling said.

If U.S. Representative Brandon Gill (R-TX) has his way, D.C. District Judges James Boasberg will soon be impeached, if not immediately suspended. Boasberg is a Progmerican Judge whose recent rulings defy American Rule of Law on its face. The DOJ itself has intervened, filing misconduct charges against the Progmerican Judge. Now, Senator Eric Schmitt (R-MO) has joined the charge.

He posted on X: “No more delays. Judge Boasberg must be suspended immediately. Impeachment is underway. He should not get to hear another case – this afternoon I led the effort to make that suspension happen…”

Missouri Sen. Eric Schmitt Demands D.C. Appeals Judge Suspend Rogue Jurist James Boasberg ASAP – RedState

In virtually every conversation about activist judges, D.C. District Chief Judge James Boasberg’s name quickly comes up. He approved the spying on Republican congressmembers in former Special Counsel Jack Smith’s Arctic Frost probe, and he forbade telecommunications companies like Verizon from revealing that they had received subpoenas. In July of this year, the DOJ filed misconduct charges against him for making public comments implying that the Trump administration would likely defy decisions from federal courts…

In March, GOP Rep. Brandon Gill (TX-26) filed an impeachment resolution against the rogue judge, and he re-upped his resolution earlier in November. Now, Missouri Sen. Eric Schmitt is demanding that Chief Judge of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit Sri Srinivasan suspend Boasberg while Congress mulls impeachment proceedings.

After failing to find an attorney willing to take up Fulton County Fani Willis’ troubled 2020 election case, the prosecutor conducting the search for her replacement appointed himself.

The Prosecuting Attorneys Council of Georgia (PACGA) faced a Nov. 14 deadline to select a new attorney or have the case dismissed.

“The filing of this appointment reflects my inability to secure another conflict prosecutor to assume responsibility for this case,” PACGA Executive Director Peter Skanadlakis wrote. “Several prosecutors were contacted and, while all were respectful and professional, each declined the appointment. Out of respect for their privacy and professional discretion, I will not identify those prosecutors or disclose their reasons for declining.” (RELATED: Fani Willis Gets Fired From Trump Case For Good)

The justice department is investigating how two Trump allies handled the investigation into whether California senator, Adam Schiff, committed mortgage fraud, according to a copy of a subpoena obtained by the Guardian and a person familiar with the matter.

The office of the deputy attorney general Todd Blanche is overseeing the inquiry, which appears to have developed as an offshoot of the main case into Schiff – a notable development since the justice department is essentially investigating activities of two close allies of the president.

A federal grand jury in Maryland, where prosecutors are investigating the mortgage allegations against Schiff, issued the subpoena to Christine Bish, an associate of federal housing finance agency (FHFA) chief Bill Pulte and a Republican congressional candidate in California.

The same Department of Justice partisans who played key roles in the launch and cover of the FBI’s politically driven Arctic Frost investigation killed a criminal probe into the driver of the Russia collusion hoax, according to new emails released Thursday by Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley.

The emails, dating back to 2019 at the height of the hoax, expose DOJ players freezing investigative efforts to look into campaign finance violations committed by Hillary Clinton and the Democratic National Committee. As became clear over time (no thanks to the accomplice media), the failed 2016 Democrat presidential candidate’s campaign and the DNC pushed opposition research to fuel a deep state soft coup aimed at toppling President Donald Trump’s first term in office.

In 2022, the Federal Election Commission fined the Clinton campaign and the DNC for “misreporting” (disguising) campaign funds paid to Fusion GPS to deliver the infamous Steele dossier that falsely and maliciously accused the Trump campaign of colluding with the Kremlin.

The U.S. Supreme Court ruled in favor of the Trump administration’s request to extend the pause of an order to fully fund food aid benefits for a few days.

Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson previously granted the emergency pause on an order from U.S. District Judge John McConnell from Rhode Island for the government to fully fund the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program. Many on the left excoriated her for what they perceived as a pro-Trump order.

‘The only way to end this crisis — which the executive is adamant to end — is for Congress to reopen the government.’

More top officials of the Democratic Party’s insurrectionist lawfare machine now face subpoenas from a Florida grand jury. The Grand Jury is investigating the DNC’s insurrectionist “Operation Arctic Frost,” which sought to use the DOJ to destroy political opposition to the soviet-styled party, the Democratic Party.

Included in the list are former CIA Director John Brennan and two former FBI officials Lisa Page and Peter Strzok. These three were key leaders in the Progmerican operation intended to overthrow the republic and replace it with the Soviet Progmerica.

A federal grand jury in Florida has subpoenaed former CIA Director John Brennan, former FBI officials Lisa Page and Peter Strzok and will soon be serving a number of other former Obama-era officials as part of the Justice Department’s ongoing probe into the Russian collusion hoax.

Strzok, the FBI’s former deputy assistant director of counterintelligence and Page, a former FBI lawyer, were served with federal subpoenas on Friday. Strzok played a leading role both in quashing the investigation into former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server in 2016, and was later instrumental in the formation of Crossfire Hurricane, the bureau’s official title for the investigation into allegations of Russian interference in the 2016 election on behalf of President Donald Trump.

The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals has just given a huge boost to California’s plan to continue building one of the most expansive digital verification regimes in the country.

The appeals court refused to rehear NetChoice v. Bonta, leaving in place a ruling that allows California to advance a system critics warn could become a statewide online digital ID requirement.

The court’s decision keeps intact most of Senate Bill 976, the Protecting Our Kids from Social Media Addiction Act.

The bill was signed by Democrat Gov. Gavin Newsom in September 2024.

The law forces social media companies to implement “age assurance” systems to determine whether users are adults or minors.

A new report based on the analysis of the gait of an individual who placed a pipe bomb in Washington, D.C., on Jan. 6, 2021, claims that the gait matches a former member of the U.S. Capitol Police.

On Jan. 6, 2021, pipe bombs were found at the the Republican and Democratic National Committees’ headquarters. The pipe bombs, which never detonated, were placed shortly before they became a small piece of the larger events of Jan. 6 that saw protesters enter the U.S. Capitol.

The new allegation was advanced by Blaze Media in a report published Saturday based on a software analysis of the suspect’s gait conducted for the outlet.

A federal appeals court on Sunday evening denied the Trump Administration’s request to halt a judge’s order forcing the full payment of SNAP benefits for November.

The order is on hold for 48 hours, per Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson.

The Department of Agriculture late Saturday evening instructed states to “immediately undo steps” taken to fund SNAP benefits for November. “The US Supreme Court granted the US Department of Agriculture an administrative stay of the orders issued by the District Court of Rhode Island,” the memo read.

“Pending any explicit direction to the contrary from Food and Nutrition Service (FNS), States must not transmit full benefit issuance files to EBT processors. Instead, States must continue to process and load the partial issuance files that reflect the 35 percent reduction of maximum allotments detailed in the November 5 guidance,” the memo stated.

A federal judge who was nominated to the bench by President Donald Trump has permanently blocked the 47th president from deploying the National Guard to Portland, Oregon, in response to demonstrations against Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in that city.

U.S. District Judge Karin J. Immergut, who issued a preliminary injunction last month preventing the president’s troop order, ruled Friday that Trump overstepped his authority by federalizing Oregon’s National Guard soldiers.

President Trump nominated Judge Immergut to the federal bench in 2018 during his first term.

The U.S. Supreme Court on Friday temporarily halted a lower court order requiring the Trump administration to fund November’s SNAP benefits.

On Thursday, Rhode Island District Judge John McConnell ordered the Trump administration to fund SNAP benefits amid the Schumer shutdown.

Representative Brandon Gill (R-TX) has officially filed articles of impeachment against Progmerican Judge James Boesberg for the role he allegedly played in the Jack Smith run insurrectionist operation Arctic Frost.

The articles read, in part, “Ignoring his responsibility to wield the power of his office in a constitutional manner, Chief Judge Boasberg granted Special Counsel John L. Smith authorization to issue frivolous nondisclosure orders in furtherance of the Federal Bureau of Investigation project codenamed ARCTIC FROST.”

Gill told Fox News, “Judge Boasberg was an accomplice in the egregious Arctic Frost scandal where he equipped the Biden DOJ to spy on Republican senators. His lack of integrity makes him clearly unfit for the gavel. I am proud to once again introduce articles of impeachment against Judge Boasberg to hold him accountable for his high crimes and misdemeanors.”

FIRST ON FOX: Rep. Brandon Gill, R-Texas, is formally introducing impeachment articles against U.S. District Judge James Boasberg on Tuesday for his role in the “Arctic Frost” probe.

Republican allies of President Donald Trump have been criticizing Boasberg after news broke that he was the judge who signed off on subpoenas and other measures in former special counsel Jack Smith’s probe.

In a vote of 6-3, the Supreme Court has ruled that President Trump has the constitutional authority to end the Biden-era non-binary option on passports. The ruling struck down lower court rulings halting the order.

DOJ Solicitor General John Sauer argued to the Supreme Court, “The President’s choice to revert to prior policy and rely on biological sex—a choice that bound the State Department—should be the last place for novel equal-protection claims or Administrative Procedure Act objections.”

The Supreme Court, in a 6-3 decision on Thursday, allowed President Trump to enforce a new policy that has ended the use of the “X” marker on passports. The high court issued the decision in an unsigned order.

President Trump signed an executive order shortly after his inauguration, which directed agencies like the State Department and Homeland Security to issue IDs, including passports, visas, and Global Entry cards, based solely on biological sex assigned at birth.

This reversed prior allowances for self-selected genders, including “X” for unspecified. The anti-American ACLU represented transgender individuals who sued over the Trump Administration’s passport policy. Two liberal district court judges struck down the Trump Administration’s new passport policy.

US Attorney General Pam Bondi on Tuesday said during the Arctic Frost investigation, investigators found that Special Counsel Jack Smith seized President Trump’s government-issued phone.

Jack Smith also subpoenaed President Trump’s personal records.

Full statement from Pam Bondi:

During the Arctic Frost Investigation, we found that Special Counsel seized President Trump’s government-issued phone.

This means the Biden Administration turned over President Trump’s phone to Special Counsel—an UNPRECEDENTED action.

In addition, Special Counsel subpoenaed all of President Trump’s PERSONAL phone records.

We can never again allow this kind of government weaponization in America.

I submitted these new documents to our partners on Capitol Hill. I commend our team at the FBI for working diligently to expose this.

President Donald Trump clearly has the climate cultists and green grifters among his top targets during his very busy second term, which began with his signing an executive order in January to halt new or renewed offshore wind leases.

Now it looks like the plug is going to be pulled from a massive offshore East Coast wind farm project.

Back in September, I reported that federal regulators were moving to revoke approval of SouthCoast Wind’s construction and operations plan, the final major permit required before offshore turbine installation. The project, located about 23 miles south of Nantucket, was slated to build up to 141 turbines supposedly capable of powering roughly 840,000 homes in Massachusetts and Rhode Island.

A federal judge has now ruled that the Trump administration may proceed with revoking federal permits for the project.

The Trump administration signaled its intent to reconsider the permit in September, claiming that the Environmental Impact Statement for the project may have “understated or obfuscated impacts” that would possibly result in noncompliance with the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act.

District Court for the District of Columbia judge Tanya Chutkan, who was appointed by President Barack Obama, ruled in favor of the White House Tuesday, saying that the project developers would not suffer from “immediate and significant hardship” if the administration proceeded with the reconsideration.

If you’re reading this, there is a good chance Joe Biden’s Justice Department tried to throw you in prison.

That is the inescapable conclusion of whistleblower documents from inside the DOJ and FBI about the Biden Administration’s Arctic Frost operation. It turns out Arctic Frost was never the inquiry into Donald Trump and Jan. 6 that Attorney General Merrick Garland and Special Counsel Jack Smith said it was. Rather, it was an unprecedented, illegal conspiracy of partisan prosecutors and FBI agents to surveil, harass, and prosecute “the entire Republican political apparatus” for the crime of being conservative.

There has never been anything like it in American history — a sweeping, open-ended, fishing expedition conducted by the regime against the opposition party. Arctic Frost weaponized the federal criminal justice system not just to defeat Trump in the 2024 presidential election, but to permanently rig the U.S. political system against the GOP.

The details are mind-boggling.

Smith secretly surveilled the telephones of at least eight Republican senators without any reason to believe any of them committed a crime. He issued 197 subpoenas to 430 individuals and organizations, none of whom had anything to do with the J6 trespassers. Indeed, some of targeted groups didn’t even exist, or hadn’t even started operations, on Jan. 6, 2021!

The abuses compound from there. Smith got a left-wing federal judge to gag phone companies from telling senators about the subpoenas — possibly a federal crime in its own right. Nor were Smith’s subpoenas restricted to information relevant to J6. On the contrary, Smith demanded wholesale access to private donor information, banking records, and even contacts with the media. Subpoenaed groups and individuals spent millions of dollars in legal fees just trying to comply.

In the span of less than 10 minutes after a huge crowd of protesters filled the U.S. Capitol West Plaza beneath the inauguration stage on Jan. 6, Capitol Police repeatedly used lethal force on the crowd, targeting people in the head, neck, face, and upper body — actions one use-of-force expert called “criminally negligent.”

During that brief span, at least 16 people were shot with kinetic-impact projectiles, including nine who took shots to the top of the head, face, and base of the neck, according to Capitol Police surveillance video obtained by Blaze News.

‘We need munitions! Unload! Unload it all! Take ’em out!’

The rounds are designed to be shot at or below the waist or skipped off pavement to strike the legs and cause trauma and “pain compliance.” None of the rounds observable on the surveillance footage struck below the belt, putting all of the observable rounds in dangerous and potentially lethal territory.

New Arctic Frost whistleblower documents confirm a seditious conspiracy of unimaginable proportions. The newly uncovered Arctic Frost whistleblower files have blown Washington wide open. They suggest a breathtaking expansion of federal power—an operation so sweeping it blurred every line between oversight and intrusion. What began as an investigation now looks, to many, like surveillance without boundaries. These revelations demand answers: who authorized it, who benefited, and why Congress was kept in the dark. At stake is not just transparency, but the integrity of the institutions Americans are told to trust.

Texas Republican Congressman Brandon Gil has filed articles of impeachment against US District Judge James Boasberg amid revelations that the Obama-appointed activist approved secret subpoenas to seize private phone records of Senators in the sham “Arctic Frost” investigation.

It was revealed last week that the FBI and DOJ weaponized their power to target President Trump, former Vice President Mike Pence, and their allies to dig up dirt on Republicans and activists who participated in efforts to overturn the rigged 2020 election.

As previously reported, Senate Judiciary Committee Chair Chuck Grassley said last week that “197 subpoenas were issued by Jack Smith and his team. These subpoenas were issued to 34 individuals and 163 businesses, including financial institutions.”

The subpoenas requested records and communications related to over 430 individuals and organizations – all aimed at Republicans.
